In early 2011, we published the Indiecision Guide to Upcoming Releases 2011. In the guide, we listed (claimed) release dates of upcoming albums and EPs of Indian indie artists. Few artists stuck to their promised release dates, while most either postponed releases or didn’t release records at all. In this yearbook, we’ve listed chronologically all the albums and EPs (that we could find) released in 2011. In case we missed a release, leave a comment or email kvlt at nh7 dot in and we’ll add it to the list.
